Dont underestimate the corruption of the Obama regime. Who knows what he and his thugs have on the justices? Something to blackmail one of them into flipping? Thats the Chicago/Kenya way.
I would not bet the farm,[ or my ass], on it
My sense is that if the mandate is going down anyway at 5-4, that at least one of the liberals will join in. They know it’s an albatross around Obama’s neck, and they’ll want to leave it in the dust.
The fight will be over severability or over-turning the entire law.
I expect that to be 5-4.
I don’t see any indication that the decision is coming today. Do you have any information that it is?

PS- when I say “and on finer places where patriots dwell”, I was referring to MY website, the Reaganite Republican (not FR)
But the kind of ‘finer’ sites I was referring to was indeed the mighty FREE REPUBLIC- you betcha!
I actually worry that, in the interest of appearing non-political, the SC will issue a unanimous but weak tea takedown, rather than a damn-the-torpedos partisan split annihilation.
It really does not matter what anyone is confident of.
Our freedom hinges upon the decision of one unelected judge, and Obamacare could very easily be upheld.
I’ve said it before and will say it again. I think it will be 7-2, only Kagan and Ginsburg voting to keep it. Plus I won’t be surprised if it is unanimous.
They need to announce NOW.
